Disney spent more than $300M on the new Indiana Jones movie and it's going about exactly as you expected it would

Yeah, but Lucas likes to do things in threes (homage to Rama).

Crystal Skull killed thr franchise.

The film was disappointing on many fronts.

What bugged me the most is that the "crystal" skull looked like some Halloween skull from Walmart filled with crumpled Saran Wrap.

It’s my firm belief Kathleen Kennedy has receipts on some very important people. And that some of those receipts definitely involve the raping of children. There’s just no other explanation.

She has destroyed Star Wars, Indiana Jones and multiple Disney classics. She’s cost people literal billions in profit. Yet she sails along untouchable as ever. Why? Please give me a better reason why no one will fire her.

I thought “The Fountain of of Metamucil” was better.

Did Indy finally come out and decide he’s really a she?

She has nothing. All the movie companies have come out and blscklisted her, effectively. And Kennedy is most likely fist deep in any of that sex crap herself.

If she had anything, they wouldn’t be able to do that.

Her husband Frank Marshall has been begging these studios to be open to working with her, trying to leverage his ties to these places. Its not happening.

She has nothing. And people have stuff on her.

“It was true to the Indianna Jones franchise.”

Like when she decks Indy with one punch? Like when he doesn’t know how to deal with obnoxious neighbors? Like when he has nothing left to live for and wants to die in the past?

Did he ever get cleared of the murder charges from earlier in the movie?

Only go to movies that are worth seeing.

Tom Cruise is still good. He is probably the last big one left who is still legit. Independent flicks are always good, you'll just have to look for them. Foreign ones are decent. But mainstream is mostly crap so just avoid them.

“Are you watching it yourselves or just making up crap?”

Most likely making up crap.

When ‘Top Gun: Maverick’ first came out there were a lot of Freepers, who obviously hadn’t seen it, raving about it being more liberal, woke garbage. This went on for a couple of weeks, until enough people who had seen it started speaking up.

So, thanks for the honest review based on having actually seen the movie.

Yes...and her defenders attacked fans as being sexist/racist for not liking the terrible stories deliberately designed to destroy the existing storyline that was supposed to be continued - never mind the fact fans loved the prior main characters that were female and played by minorities.

“Yes, I think I’m going to start a business brokering ESG credits. It would be a sure thing.”

Just like selling carbon credits, a scam that pays lots of money.

Yes, ideology trumps profit in most left-managed companies. We see this over and over.

To be clear, theres really just one main person and that person has been doing it for 10 solid years.....No one will touch her. She is a franchise destroyer. Fans hate what she produces.

We've been hearing the same thing you posted every time one of her films bombs and yet nothing happens to her. So I will believe it when I see it.
